It is always sunny in Paradise: Sunshine Blogger Award 9

Today is a big day for Pinkie in her personal life. Not only will we celebrate my sister’s birthday I might also be taking steps for a huge improvement for my quality in life! I am taking steps to move away from my criminally invested, drugs ridden town and move into a much more safer and accepting place! This means this week I have a lot of stuff to get in order and not a lot of time to write! So it is catch up week!  Easy content! That I can write pretty fast! This always includes blog tags! And it is time for my ninth Sunshine Blogger award.  I might do a tenth someday..but that will probably be the final one for a good while. 

The Rules

Since I have done this 8 times before and the tag has travelled around more than a juicy rumor on twitter I am not going to do the copy paste stuff. Rules are simple. Display the logo, thank the one who tagged you, answer their 11 questions , ask 11 questions tag eleven people. Since this was a tag back.. and we are on the ninth run I am not nominating anyone! If you want to answer my questions just let me know in the comments. Or become a coconut by supporting my Kofi and always get nominated by default.

I was nominated by the Unpopular Popular who is an amazing blogger that shares the same favourite Power Puff girl as me.. even though it was a bit of a  more random pick for them!  They also have some amazing content for you to discover! If they haven’t been eaten by the spiders in their bedroom I am very hopeful we will see amazing content in the future! So check it out yourself. Now to answer their questions! Unfortunately I am really short on time this time around so I can’t do too many custom images.

What’s the most interesting thing that anime has taught you?

Uhm oh no! Most interesting! That makes this super hard! Now I have to be interested! That is not something I’d usually go to describe myself with. I am an acquired taste. The most practical thing that anime has taught me is to buy cheaper cuts of beef.. put in honey or pineapple juice or cover it with onions and let it sit for a while to get it a lot more tender and tasting high quality than it actually is. No more expensive cut but the more flavourful fatty cuts for me that now I tenderise by breaking down their enzymes. Yay for breaking down enzymes.

However Kamina from Tengen Toppa has taught me not to give up hope. What we see as possible or impossible is only the results of our limited knowledge or imagination. We do not know if two robots will combine or not unless we actually try it even if we do not know all the factors and by what we know now it seems impossible.  The same goes for things like my health, my acceptance in this world and whatever it is that I have to do here! If I believe in myself hard enough and strive for what I want.. that is a worthy fight! I might crash and burn.. but sometimes that is not bad either. Our imagination can break open the heavens and shatter what is currently possible! So what might seem impossible now.. just might be reached through passion.. finding a new way..shattering what people believe right now.

Surprise! You are now famous. What are you famous for?

Apparently my blog really hit off?! I mean I don’t really think I can reach fame any other way! Perhaps I am famous for doing D&D games as a DM bringing anime to the world of D&D with my own custom ruleset that I manage to sell? Then again is that really famous?! I’d probably just be some form of pink meme. As I don’t really get meme humor either.. it would explain the surprise of me becoming famous all of the sudden so yes! I am locking in my answer! I became famous as some weird pink meme!

Whoops for the typo I guess he is right! I am an idiot!

Which anime character is most like you?

There are a lot. I do relate to Koito from Bloom Into You a lot..but she is a bit young. So at the same time there aren’t that many anime characters like me. I don’t booze a lot.. so as a mature anime woman living by herself.. whew.. I am out of answers quickly. Maybe Liz from Liz and the  Bluebird. Do anime movies even count? Misty from Pokémon also is a good shoutout. We both love Pokémon, we both can be very and brutally honest but also quite girly. I would never wear hot pants or such an awkward outfit.. so then I am more like Serena from Pokémon or  Cure Melody. I can be socially awkward enough that I am also a whole lot like Tomoko from Watamote and I present myself like a Dark Magician Girl like person.. and none of these are Dojiko! So either I am really unique or I haven’t seen the right anime yet.

You have been kidnapped by a powerful criminal organisation. The main protagonist of the last anime you watched is the one who must come to your rescue. Would you ever be rescued, or are you doomed?

That depends, do we count anime stuff..as in anime content or literally an episode. When it comes down to anime Content I’d be rescued by Goku.I am pretty sure he has the strength to save me. I am not sure he might not sacrifice me to give the final boss a stronger form… BUT my chances would look up.  If we go on official anime, at the time of writing this it would be Hikaru from Hikaru no Go. Unless he develops powers later on I would be pretty doomed.  Then again I’d probably charm myself into the criminal organisation. They must have kidnapped me for a reason so I got to have something to offer them, I sure as heck know it isn’t money and as long I don’t have to do the killing and it saves my life I do not mind earning some nice sweet criminal organisation cash!  I have TONS of experience with Evil Criminal Organisation Motto’s as well! So I am sure it would work out! I’d get a job in no time!

If you could only watch one genre of anime for the rest of your life, what genre would you choose?

Do tournament arcs count? That’s like a sub genre?  I guess I would have to go with Isekai if we interpret it a bit. We can pile a bunch of stuff as Isekai. Yu-Gi-Oh is about a phantom being reborn in a card player.. isekai.. Digimon.. definitely Isekai. In Hunter X Hunter there is a virtual game arc! Isekai!  Yes I tend to be the person who tries to see how far she can push her boundaries. Kamina has taught me that.. but also law school has and years of Sith Roleplay. I’d get what I want..I am pretty sure I can spin Flip Flappers as an Isekai as well as they go into another world. Kyousougiga… yeah !  I am happy with this choice! But I will cheat!
Speaking of cheating. Cheat Magician was pretty bad!

I really love her outfit though!

Choose your superpower (you knew this one was coming!)

Pathokinesis! I determine what other people feel by projecting whatever I want them to feel on them. This is waaay better than mind control. Not only can I make them jump off a cliff.. by making them feel my words have validity. I can also make them happy that they do it!  I’d make Deborah Ann Woll fall in love with me or perhaps someone richer first.. then again I could just visit Bill Gates and make him feel like donating to my blog would make him super happy. Would I feel bad that these emotions are not genuine? No! I mean I would not like to snap my fingers and make Debbie bend to my will. I’d give her a gift and just make sure she really likes it. Who is to say she doesn’t naturally. I just make sure that neither of us is disappointed. If we can get happiness from a pill, why would happiness form a super power be any worse? I’d totally not be a superhero if I had powers.. I mean I’d probably go work for a charity .. for pay.. and make people really feel for our cause.. so I’d do good.. but it would also benefit me. I would not be too afraid to go the villainous route either.. then again I would not commit a crime. Making people give money to me or discard things they suddenly do not like anymore is not illegal.. so would I really be a bad guy?!

Give us one fun fact about you that most people wouldn’t know.

Fun hey! Okay so once I got sooo drunk I believed I was an airplane! I mean someone may have spiked my drink as well I am not sure. We were playing a drinking game and one person I had never met yet advised me to try one  of those special beers in the fridge.  If I liked this and this beer.. that one was the same. He warned me though it was a heavy one and you can get drunk of it very easily. I got cocky and said! I do not get drunk easily!  He handed me one of those beers and I downed it in one go. That was the last thing I remembered. 

The next morning I woke up …at home..covered in dirt..but very much fully clothed and without company or without having done weird stuff, as a friend came by to check up on me! They biked me home last night after I completely lost control at the party. There I claimed to have been on a plane for about one straight hour before I was convinced I should head home! I ran off .. still pretending to be a plane and hopped my bike. Without waiting for any of my friends I dashed off. I biked so fast they barely could catch up with me.. and I am not a sporty biker and they are. I ran off the road off a hill and crash landed into a petting zoo. 

Apparently I got into a fight with a goat.. who was baah’ing at me.. and apparently I was like.. “come at me .. bastard.. have you never seen an airplane before?” I then apologised to it ..or so it is said.. and hopped on my bike again and I peddled up the hill instead of following the path.  At one point I saw the canal near us as a landing strip and I wanted to jump into it to land and stop being a airplane as I wanted to be me again…My friend coaxed me to stop by saying  we needed to land on my driveway.. that made sense to me and the rest went on auto pilot… there were a lot of videos made that night.. and by the afternoon they did no longer exist. My hangover came much much later.. maybe it was jetlagged.

You can invite one anime character to dinner (I’ll let you decide if it’s a date or not ). Who do you invite? Where do you decide to eat? What do you talk about?

Do I have my super powers already?! I mean I am pretty good at empathy manipulation already so maybe! I guess I would say Sayaka from Bloom into you! I plan to make her my Waifu so might as well stick with it. Given how she is in Bloom into you we’d talk a bit about books, and mostly her experience on being gay. It really seems like she wanted someone to talk about that in that show.  Seeing how things are across worlds that might be interesting to her. The Netherlands might be a spot she’d enjoy being and then she is mine! Muhahaha. I’d go out to eat Tapas with her. Obviously our sushi will not meet her expectations and the little food to share makes for a good date and also some conversation. She seems like a person who enjoys food trivia and I have some so the more food.. the more I can impress. 

If you could own any creature from any anime/game/etc as an IRL pet, what pet would you choose?

Pokémon count right?!  So I would pick a Sylveon but then if it was real those flesh ribbons might be weird! I would probably love it regardless it is my favourite Pokémon after all. But If I could get a pet Pokémon I would actually go with Mew! Mew is the ancestor and creator of all the other pokémon after all! So if I get Mew .. I would end all ecological balance on earth but I could get all the Pokémon I want! Yes I am one of those! If I had 1 wish I’d wish for more wishes type of person!

If you could solve any one problem in this world, what would it be?

Something I can make money off! Not like an insane amount just so I can live comfortably without having to do anything else. I do not really believe in pure altruism. In fact I am pretty sure if I solve one world problem without gaining anything my life would actually be miserable. Say for example I solved racismn.. the fact that I magically took that away will mean people will look at me and say “Why did you not cure cancer instead I just lost my wife because of it .. you are evil you chose them above us’ Even people who are being discrimated would say “I could have lived with what I have always lived.. but I can not live without my beloved brother, Fuck you Pinkie’ I do believe this is human nature while people of course would be grateful as well I would not be able to live with all the hate that I got.
A good deed never goes unpunished.

However once you take altruism out of the equation, people suddenly treat you a whole lot more decently! Why did I choose to  end hunger? Well because I have these magic tomatoes to sell.  How do I get medicine for Covid ? No one knows but she is selling it for the price of a Snickers Bar.. thats cheap enough. Snickers for everyone in the world. If you do a good thing for money.. people do not ask .. why would they do that?  I would be appreciated, am better off than I would before and people are less suspicious of my magic because I am not altruistic thus I would gather less hate for my choice.  Strange.. but I feel it works that way. I’ll help anyone but also get rich enough for my own robot unicorn

Would you rather: A) eat only your top three favourite foods for the rest of your life; or B) Eat anything EXCEPT your top three favourite foods for the rest of your life?

That depends, do I need to pay for the food? Or in this situation the food would be accessible to me. I could not afford to keep paying for Sushi , Tapas and Tournedos Rossini/Steak Tartar/other luxurious beef dishes.  So I would starve ..if i had to pay. If it was somehow affordable to me because.. it’s in such excess as it’s the only three foods in the world.. or like due to the power of the Dilemma I get the food… Oh boy I would stick to my top 3 so hard. I’d miss Pizza which is number 4 but there are tapas like that.  It would be unhealthy  but Sushi and Tapas are varied enough to give me a bit of everything and beef is a bit leaner but well red meats and such. Still I rather die 10 years earlier eating delicious stuff rather than 10 years later never eating delicious stuff. I could live without my top three foods but why would I?! Oh Sushi has to include Sashimi or it will replace the entirety of Sushi in favour of Sashimi.
Just let me know before it starts so I can snack for a lifetime!

Eleven Questions!

So my questionnaires usually have theme to them and this time I am going to follow the recent trend in spam and ask your questions about plants and pets! That way all your blogs will be super popular! Though I am not nominating anyone! You can do that yourself if you so choose! Just let me know! I bet these will get you to a million followers!

Question 1: Do you have a pet?! If so what tells us about your pet, if no .. what pet would you get if you could get one.
Question 2: What is your favourite flower/plant?
Question 3: Do you think your pet, be it the real one or the imagined one would ever eat a bar of soap? What would you do if they did?
Question 4: Are you good with caring for plants?
Question 5: What is your favourite wild animal?
Question 6: Did you ever make a Tree House? Or some other sort of hut?
Question 7: What is your favourite Anime Animal?
Question 8: What is your favourite nature scene in an anime?
Question 9: If you could be a pet, what animal would you be?
Question 10: What is your favourite season to visit mother nature?
Question 11:Combine a plant and an animal? What would be the ultimate spam click-bait lifeform?

So these are pretty weird questions! I don’t really expect people to pick this one up off all the tags that I did! I suggest if you want to be nominated you either check my previous Sunshine Blog Award for questions about the blogosphere or my Let’s Blog Award 2 Electric Boogaloo for questions about secrets! If this is your jam though good on you! Speaking of Jam.. jam would be pretty gross in coffee but I could buy Jam with Kofi! So if you want me to buy Jam and not put it in my coffee, support my Kofi! Else I will put jam in my hot beverage and then I am only one step away from putting Pineapple on Pizza!

Now I have enough Sunshine to create a mini sun now: Sunshine Blogger Award 7

Hello Island Guests while I am writing this my brain still is very much like cheese on a Pizza.. it’s so broken I hallucinate Pineapple on the pizza as well! Ewww! Tropical though! So yeah I might have a heatstroke! Maybe it is because of all this sunshine?! That’s right! Siesta Week is concluded with YET another Sunshine Blogger award! If you are a regular  you know this would happen because I told you.  If you haven’t! There are TWO other Sunshine Awards of mine and both are pretty good! I had a hard time saying that because I should not say that off my own posts!

The Rules Again

I am gonna be brief again about the rules. Show the logo, thank the one who nominated you. Answer 11 questions, nominate 11 people, and ask them 11 questions.  Of course I change that up! I nominated 11 people over my 3 posts. Targeting people with more specific questions. If you want to join in one of these tags all you have to do is ask. I will put your blog in the list including links so that is free promo right there! That excuses me from the rule breaks right?!  If you want to check out a copy pastable list of the rules check out my other sunshine awards or even better visit my amazing nominator!

The amazing 7mononoke nominated me this time around. They have this completely unique blog that delves deep into the mindset of characters, with a few amazing reviews to boot! So if you want to read something with a bit more substance and than my usual posts they are definitely checking out! Speaking about the checking out, let’s check out their questions. 

For you, how do you tell if an anime is high quality in terms of visuals?

Honestly.. I don’t.. There are styles I like and I dislike and usually the flashier and more extravagant the more I like it. I HATED the visual style of Tower of God and really dislike some screenshots I saw  of The God of High School.. but I love the graphic style of Kill la Kill, The Rolling Girls, Tengen Toppa and Kyousougiga. I rarely call animation good.. I just say what I like. Flip Flappers is something I have recently fallen in love with.. so yeah I guess the answer would be . .bright colours? Super Natural visuals?! Jojo’s is yet another example …ooh and  No Game No Life. So yeah COLOURS!  I am pretty sure! So if I ever say I like the visuals I say I like the colours. The brain is such an amazing tool that can fill in blanks so I for one seek out the impossible rather than that which moves smooth! I like big contrasts as well.

Maybe that is also why I dislike visuals in anime like Attack on Titan and stuff like Vinland Saga as well. I want a certain level of surrealism  in my animation. It helps the  suspense of disbelief. If I see a very gritty drawn anime,  more often than not feel less invested.. as if I know the limits more. I really love anime with intentionally bad animation as well! It makes me laugh! One style I have particularly come to enjoy is the new fluent animations in Dragon Ball Broly. The most recent movie yet again I am not that facinated by how fluent the motion is but how different the colours are. It might look simpler, but what is there feels really right and it can be contrasted so much more! Yet in reality I do not really know.. I can see stuff I like and go like.. ooh pretty.. and then see the faces in God of High School and go like…eew..in the end it’s not that important to me.

Do you like to listen to anime OSTs sometimes?

I do that a lot. Music to me is much more about memories rather than inspirational texts. Not being all that active in the romance scene, the whole break up songs or love song idea already doesn’t gel with me.  I can’t relate.. and even worse.. I do not care  about other people’s love lives. Sure I want my friends to be happy.. but hearing how Rihanna had a bad boyfriend does NOTHING for me. So that’s a lot of music out of the window already. When music invokes a memory however.. for example the fight music for an anime fight I really loved it gets my blood pumping.. sort of. I am slightly more inclined to listen to game soundtracks than Anime variants but when I write my anime fan fiction I almost always listen to anime music. Every once in a while I do listen to my favourite anime openings, English covers or the Love Live stuff!

What’s an anime that you consider a masterpiece?

This is a hard one, a masterpiece is something I would recommend to everyone. My taste is a mix of super generic and super weird. I generally dislike Iscar movies. I do feel that The Godfather is no doubt a masterpiece.. but I don’t like it. The thing that is closest for me would be Kyousougiga. Make sure to watch the explanation episode to see the deeper themes and this is a very deep show.  It is certainly not for everyone. but there are a lot of artsy elements in it to fit the brief.  My biggest recommendation at the moment  would be Flip Flappers though! I just think that one is a bit more accessible and slightly more low brow so I am not sure if I would call it a masterpiece, I love a lot of anime but calling something a Masterpiece usually ruins it for others. Overhyping kills anime. I have my gallery of sweethearts though.

What’s an anime that’s so horrible you think it shouldn’t exist?

That is a bit of a meanspirited question. Every anime has a fan, and as long as an anime has a single fan..it has the right to exist. There are also very few anime I passionately hate as I usually just think an anime is not for me.  I think  saying you are a fake anime fan because you do not like (x)  is the same as saying stuff like. “You did not like Game of Thrones?..Well then you just don’t like TV Shows” The world of anime is so vast and the fact that it exists means it has an audience. Just like Mobile games.. A friend of mine actually plays Raid Shadow Legends *hurling sounds*  and she loves it. Good for her.. so my feeling towards it doesn’t mean it should not exist.  I feel the same way about anime. Every anime has a fan and as long as one person gets joy.. it should exist. We aren’t forced to watch something we don’t want, we can just walk away and pretend it doesn’t exist. No need for erasure!

I have spoken out against a few anime that I really dislike.. but I mostly dislike them as much as I do because I can’t say anything bad about them. A friend even kicked me out of his house once for saying Geass is just okay, I had some issues with the writing and the way mechs felt shoehorned in. I didn’t even say it to hurt him.. he ASKED me , what Anime do you think is overrated. That hurt! and it made me shift from not liking the anime to actively disliking it. Yet no matter how much I dislike something  The fact that it is out there doesn’t make my life worse, I don’t have to watch it if I don’t want to. If I’d delete it.. I might gain one night with my friends where they initially planned to watch Geass, but my friends clearly would lose so much more. If that anime is worth kicking me out of their house for.. by saying I thought it was okay..but not great.. than clearly it means more to them then to me.I would never take that away from them.. and I think that goes for every anime. Even the ones worst reviewed on MAL..someone out there in the world is super proud that their mommy or daddy helped made this.. or voiced that  character…for them it will always be more important than to me. So all anime should exist. Maybe I would erase, Erased… just for the memes…

Awww snap! Wrong Series

What are your favorite colors for anime eyes?

Let’s see how many people can guess this one! For those who don’t know the answer yet.. it’s a bit of a mix between red and white and if you look at my blog you may find hints. Others than the obvious I really like golden eyes or bright yellow ones. I also like it when they are special like Nia’s eyes in Tengen Toppa, or like people who have galaxy eyes. I don’t like Naruto eyes though! So I guess my absolute favourites would be pink ones with something special like a pink iris, white heart shape pupil! Sorry if that shocked your world!

Can you help 7Mononoke think of some cover/banner image ideas for Anime Rants?

Sure.. I will add in a few suggestions. The general idea I have is based on the fact that you take a lot of inspiration from psychology. So I would either use a psychiatric couch  with an anime character laying on it and your avatar being there as the psychologists. Talking.. ranting.. or I would find a  picture of a brain and use it in a sort of diagram with some anime characters surrounding it. I will show you a suggestions. Because that is kinda my thing!

Something in this vein! Of course this version has a lot of errors in it because it is just a suggestion but I could see you use something like this. It shows your intellectual and psychological take on anime.. is in green which is your main colour and has a few nice contrasting tones. The inkt blob stuff is to even add more credibility to the shrink theme and of course your avatar is there! Cause she looks smart as well!

 Did you know I, 7Mononoke have a Patreon account now? Check out the question on my blog for a link!

I did not know this! I checked it out it seems cool but did not know what your tiers meant! But how cool you offer extra content for those Patreon followers. I am to scatterbrained for that I would forget! Did you know I have a KoFi?  In fact  every writer for Pardise can have their own Ko-Fi or Patreon.  I might get a Patreon myself one day.. If I can think up a cute banner for it. Untill then here is my Ko-Fi.


I am unable to support you right now even if I like too.. but if I ever get sponsored by a Billionaire who wants to pay me millions for my site.. I will be there! I am a total sell out!  Heck for a big enough cheque I’d even say Raid Shadow Legends is awesome! For just a bit more I am going to keep up that lie that I like that game as well. Heck I might even say Kirito is amazing to make bank.. or put Lelouche on anything other than the Kill spot in Kiss , Mary , Kill.  But until people come with big checks.. I am just a NEET. So I am sorry 7Mononoke I’d love to help……

Disclaimer: No need to feel bad though! I have enough to pay my rent food and occasional outing with friends, just no money left to burn after that!

How old were you when you got into anime?

While I watched Alfred J Quack from my earliest days and loved Maple Town when I was three years old or so, that real anime moment for me did not not come until April 2008. That meant I was already 21 years old.. the same age as I am now.. just I have been 21 for twelve years now. .. getting close to my 13th 21th birthday. So yeah.. much like with anything in my life I was a late bloomer.  Part of this was due to me being very much bullied and trying to be normal.  It did not work out and now I am a weeb.. Yet as a result I have only reached my anime maturity after I was 25. When I was a lot more emotionally calm. This is why I still very much treasure some of the super classics even if they are not THAT good. Like Digimon, Dragon Ball Z and Medabots heck even Oban Star Racers. So this is why my taste in anime is like the super kiddy classic stuff.. and the super weird stuff. Maple Town is still pretty cute as well!

In your opinion, can an anime still be “good” and have poor, cheap art/animation?

Have you ever played a retro game and loved it? Of course!  Manga draws in people even when it is non animated in the form of Manga.  That means that story can just be as enjoyable with cheap art. Plenty of Manga don’t have great art either. Not that I am a big manga buff. I love retro games.. stuff where the visual quality also matters less. To me the best games and anime aren’t the ones that do everything right.. to me the best anime are the ones that do some things so amazing that you can forgive their other flaws. The flaw I prefer the most is bad visuals.. as I can sorta spot them but don’t care that much.

There is a  visual design that can kill shows for me like Digimon Appmon or those shows that use a lot of that quasi cgi..but design is but an element.  An anime has to have heart. A lof of anime with bad quality visuals now have that and they have to try harder.. kind of like that South Park episode about ugly kids.  I would rather date a girl with burn scars in her face but who is witty and has great stories than date a beauty who can not shut up how coveted she is. Anime is exactly the same.  I will NEVER EVER watch an anime just because it has good visuals.  At worse bad visuals reduce the number of episodes I give an anime a chance to win me over. Weird visuals do draw me in but they don’t need to be good! Yay for Gal and Dinosaur.

Do you have trouble getting motivated to write blog posts and if so why do you think that is?

In this day and age, everything can be measured. We see how fast our own blog grows, how fasts others grow and how much likes we both get. As a result it is easy to start comparing.
For example my Breaking Bad X Shokugeki Crossover Challenge blog did pretty terrible. A lot more effort went into that one than say.. One of these blog tags. I score pretty well on those.
I won’t on this one because it will come out late. If I post past 13:00 oh clock my time, my posts usually go dead. Because bigger and better bloggers post around this time as well. I get flooded under bigger names. That can be very demotivating. Add in the fact that we are brainwashed over social media over the importance of likes. Trough YouTube we get a feeling that people are here for you, while in reality they are here for the community. It’s very easy to get caught up in toxic self importance. When it seems like 40 people like what you read the brain is quickly to say .. people love me. Which to an extent is true.. people do notice us! Yet it is easy for those 40 likes to become your new standard. In that case only getting 8 likes.. will make it easy for you to think.. People are done with me now.

However all those measuring tools we get mean nothing.. because we can not look inside peoples heads. I know some people who mean a lot to me only click like on my blog without reading…or so I think..perhaps they just do not know how to respond. Perhaps they are on their phone and typing a response is annoying.. and perhaps i am right and they did not even read my post.That is only a handful of options yet we tend to assume the worse. If I get less likes than normal I think people hate me now cause I preformed better earlier. While maybe there is like a big press conference in the states and everyone is watching..by the time they return to their reader my post is pushed way down.. that has NOTHING to do with me. Perhaps WordPress is not showing my posts in reader.. it happend before! Yet because we as a species let our highs become our new standards.. each time I break a record I could wonder.. why doesnt this post preform as well. As long as you write for others, WordPress will start to burn you out. If you are a hobby writer like me.. do it for yourself and the rest is a bonus. Any like or comment is a bonus not a new benchmark! How others score should be completely left out create your own happy little world.

Have you ever taken a MBTI 16 Personality test and if so what type were you?

Yes I am an INFP , mediator type personality. I am sure 7mononoke can tell you much more about this role but it is said that these persons love to act and play a role..As a Tabletop roleplayer that makes sense. They are also inclined to pick up writing.. I wonder when I will start doing that. They talk using metaphors  and compare stuff with other things oftenly to make their point. If you ever read ANY of my blogs you have seen me do this a lot. Like A LOT.  INFP people can easily get consumed in their causes.  Like me wanting a more positive internet.. and they can get consumed by that. Which you have seen me do as well.

I do think these tests a a bit like Horoscopes,  and people are  always in flux. There are times I turn off my emotions and are ruled by logic. There are times I am more extroverted so to say that his label defies me is going a bit far. I do think at best the tag will help you understand me. I do not act a certain way because I am INFP.. I am INFP prone because I act a certain way. I am not definable by my bias to logical or emotional thinking. Being an introvert doesn’t mean I can not be extroverted in fact some of my friends might call me an extrovet because they do not remember me being introverted. In the end I am Pinkie.. Pinkie will act like Pinkie because she is Pinkie and not because she is INFP .. so while you can take a gamble on how I will respond, Pinkie reserves the right to surprise you still! This might not even be my final form.

My Questions and Nominees

So normally this tag tends to stick into the anime Community a lot! So I decided to let it break out of there a bit and nominate some more gamely guys and gals.

Am I Blushing? Or is it the heat?! Sunshine Blogger Award 5 A Love Story

Hello Island Guests! Welcome back to my blog! Right now we are in a HUUUGE heatwave which is has me deal with temperatures between 35 and 40 degrees Celsius, which is in between 95 and 100 degrees Fahrenheit.  So this week I decided to take it a bit easy! I am catching up with by blog tags and not sticking to a rigid schedule!  So expect a lot of tags and fun light stuff. In this post we tackle yet another nomination for the sunshine blogger award.  Number six or so!  But this one is special! Not only was I nominated by my Senpai! It also it is one of the most creative version I have seen of this post!   So here goes!

The Rules

Thank the person who nominated you and provide a link to their blog so that other people can visit them.

Irina is a very important blogger to me! Her unique voice and her passion really make me look up to her and call her my blogging senpai. I doubt I even know anyone in the bloggosphere who doesn’t know Irina but if you haven’t go check out her site! If you do, you probably visit her daily anyway because that is how awesome she is! I feel like I pushed her away a bit recently.. so I do hope things will become super bright in the future!

Answer the 11 questions put to you by the nominator

I did this with great joy I loved this question line so sooo much! So thanks Senpai for offering this sunshine!

Nominate 11 bloggers of your choosing and provide them with a new set of 11 questions to answer.

No I am not going to do that! I will follow Rini’s style of questions and will nominate 3 people to keep the tag alive.. and if you want to play.. you can do so by telling you want in. I will edit this blog than to have relative links in as well! I have a feeling some of you would not like a post this quirky!

Notify the nominees by commenting on one of their blog posts

No to this as well, I do not like promoting my blog on other peoples posts by saying “you have been nominated” I do not mind saying stuff like “Oh recently I wrote a similar post” as it invites for talks..and exchanging ideas and saves on space.. but self promoting my tag posts is something I refuse to do! Also I want people to have their comments relevant! I tag a post instead of a block which means people SHOULD get a notification.

List the rules and display The Sunshine Blogger Award logo within your post or on your blog site.

You see a job offer for a job you didn’t even know existed but is your dream career. What is it and how do you prepare for the interview?

Well clearly I have moved to the United States in that case because that job would be crew member of Critical Role.. with pay!  So social stuff surrounding it and their twitch as well! Basically what Marisha Ray does but less power woman.. more Pinkie!  Someone needs to play an adorable trickster gnome.. or a shy young elf girl who is afraid to socialise so instead she sends out a duplicate.  Critical Role for those who do not know is THE D&D webshow featuring Matthew Mercer and his team of nerdy ass voice actors playing Dungeons and Dragons!  Now they are looking for an extra cast member that gets to do a lot of fan interactions! Wow I am so game for this.  

I would prepare by having build just a ton of amazing characters and introduce them all to them! Now that I gave up my position as a DM the need to roleplay has never been higher and come up with a few good promo’s as well. Perhaps even make something of a bit of a trailer so highlight what I could bring to the table.  Both as a player and part of critical role! With a bit of humor.. kind of like Barney Stinson’s video resume but geekier!  I do feel these guys have a lot of humor and most of all they have their hears in the right places and truly are fellow geeks! that is what I would like to appeal to with them because I think I can still shine there! Now I do need to invent a new word and tie it to myself! The video will not show up in WordPress Reader.

On your way to the interview, the most beautiful person you’ve ever laid eyes on trips and spills the contents of their bag all over the place. They are looking around obviously hoping someone would help but you don’t have a minute to spare. What do you do?

She is a Dojikko, probably slightly older than me, because I am done being the oldest.  I really need an energy that pulls me instead of me pulling them. She is lanky,  a bit awkwardly tall. Brunette with a tainted lock.. white , blue or purple.  er  bag is filled with knick knacks. Like Gachapon esque keychains.  Tissues but one in very colourful boxes or that have the picture of cute animals on it. She wears a long sleeve but embarrassed that I have to help her she pulls the sleeves over er hands and now it’s just sleeves. Her hair slightly dishevelled, eyes that are really pale underneath her slightly darker dominant hair tone. She is pale but a bit red with fluster. She wears glasses that really should have been thinned but she could not afford it so now it slightly warps the size of her eyes. Making them look bigger.. like anime eyes.  To me there is two kinds of beauty. 

There is the easy beauty and contains people I do agree are gorgeous.   People like Liv Taylor, Megan Fox.. the “I would not kick it out of bed”  type of beauty! Symmetrical, healthy looking and if you walk across the street holding their hands heads would turn.. I can appreciate that beauty but I experience ZERO attraction that that. True beauty to me.. is when you love something you know is a deviation of the status quo. Like how I like girls that are to tall or wear thick glasses. I want a girl that is too much of something. To chubby, to skinny, or whatever because that is beauty I know I am really drawn too. I could build a porn body.. but I prefer to love  something real.. something specifically would like.. this amazing person would probably be described as flawed in the common eyes.   

I definitely would help her, because I read ahead! I read question 10! I can be late! But yeah I want a job that thinks helping a person in need and showing up a minute late because I did is a good thing. We aren’t machines! I should not be a minute late because I stopped to smell some flower sure but if I helped! People should be like.. well done .. rather than.. YOUR late.  I would rush to help and look at them to see if she is embarrassed and if she is I would pick up a few things and tell a story on how I dropped my groceries and got tomato all over a dog.. or how I had this really great treat for myself and a dog ate it.. so I look like bigger fool than she does.  Groceries can be easily replaced and I want to make them feel better about themselves! It is quite beautiful to see that happen in a person. That chuckle and smile.. that regardless if you made a joke or were for real shows appreciation and hope that they aren’t the idiot they thought they were.

That evening, while you are casually walking home, you meet that person again and something compels you to go talk to them. What do you say?

If a am to be  myself I’d probably stare at them a bit dreamily and walk into a hedge, this time prompting her to save me.. I genuinely feel I am might not add value to others as they would to mine and that is something I can not talk myself out off. It’s a fear but people have confirmed this. Friends told me I stood in the way of their career.  I’d choose friendship over an career and that made them do the same.. and I was holding them back like that. I think I could to to someone’s party and nobody noticed I’d was gone.. but I do have a charisma I deny myself… but it’s a reactionary charisma. I respond well to people I don’t reach out well to them. Part of why I blog is because I would belief I have things to tell as well! I can talk to someone back no problem..but initiating a conversation.. is going to be difficult.

So  I’d probably place myself in a reactionary situation .. by purpose or accident and draw their attention to me.  If I HAD to act first..I’d probably just say Hi probably looking scared like a deer staring into approaching headlights. Then making inaudible noises or saying “nice weather for a walk.. in a way like I am reading a script as a really bad actress”   I’d not say Hey It’s you.. the girl who dropped her stuff.  I’d embarrass her again. I’d probably stutter a bit and ask her if she’s out for a stroll or something innocent.  I probably would not be Pinkie but Tomato right now though.

You suddenly realize you should introduce yourself and ask their name at the same time – what is it?

I really like names like that end with vowel sounds. Lucy, Mara, Erica, Charlie etc. I would however not take away that magic of hearing her name for me.. I caught the name.. but for onlookers and readers that is secret.. I just hear her name and introduce myself as Denise,  but her name it’s hidden.  

A Dutch singer and attempted politician Henk Westbroek once wrote a love song describing his perfect woman in super vague terms.. but he describes that feeling of being in love perfectly well. Saying that his girl seems so bright.. that even her shadow can blind him. The best line in that song.. and one of my favourite descriptions for being in love however is about names. Translated (so it doesn’t flow as well in English)   it says. Even your name is Beautiful. More Beautiful than that of anyone…..who shares that name with you. I LOVE that line. Whatever my new acquaintance name is..   let’s say Charlie as a placeholder name, her name is the most beautiful I have ever heard.. among all who share that name with her. Also Y.. I do count as a vowel sound. 

Your new very attractive acquaintance is chatting away happily and you can’t believe your ears. What are they saying?

Well judging by question 6 they aren’t talking about anime yet so that is out! So let’s say she mentions she was heading home from her walk to watch the Critical Role live stream which she then realises she overshared with and when I react like OMG did you see what Jester did .. she takes my hands and does two excited hops! OMG YES! I can’t wait to see what happens next.  Or maybe that she is hosting a D&D game herself that night.. something in that nature. I like it when girls have a hobby of their own .. something that isn’t particularly interesting to me but if they talk about it through great lengths because they are so passionate about it! Perhaps she can love plants and be ranting some amazing plant facts. Like how my dress would remind her of a pink flower and flowers become pink because it actually shares genes of red and white plants.. like it’s one of the few plants that actually can be crossbred. .so animal crossing is right? Something like that would be super cute.

Turns out they like anime. No way? What are the odds of that. Here’s your chance to appear all cool thanks to your deep anime knowledge. You lean in and confidently recommend this series.

School Live or Sweet Blue Flowers/Aoi Hana

Why?

I do not know her well enough yet because we have only talked for a few minutes based on the next question.  So it is hard to recommend something so I need a hook!  Sweet Blue Flower is something I can hook onto er earlier topic of gardening and it would further my agenda of putting a little yuri into her mind.. in a very cute and innocent way. Hoping they would identify with Fumi.  I could just go like “speaking about flowers” …  if the conversation doesn’t flow that way I’d probably recommend School Live. Because  reasons! I can’t spoil it without ruining the show! It offered such a unique viewing experience for me and I really loved it for it.  It is a great conversation anime and it has a few sad scenes that might prompt her into letting me cheer her up! Like me coming over for a hug.. or watch the rest with her so she has a shoulder to cry on .. or at least someone to share tissues with.

After a few minutes, almost 60 of them, your companion excuses themselves. It’s getting late and they did have some things to take care of. You reach around for an excuse to see them again. It worked as they are agree. Please tell us how you managed that!

I passed my charisma check?! Wow not sure how that happened , pretty sure I would convince her to go flower shopping with me.. like .. I do not have a lot of plants in house and I’d ask for er advice what plants I can put there with low maintenance effort. Like I would say.. we could go to the city together and she can help me pick out a few plants and I would buy her lunch for her time. Something like that.. that is kinda a date but not really a date. Like should things not really work we could just do our chore and I would gain at least a nice plant out of it. She could rant on her hobby and would get a lunch out of it. I know I am interested in her and I think she is in me.. but when I go on a date, date.. I always feel super insecure.. so I give her a purpose.. if things don’t work they can leave after without feeling awkward. If it’s fun we can both look for excuses to hang out more and we make our intentions pretty clear. 

I will go into a date mostly thinking.. what about if we fall in love and I have to kiss.. how would I approach that.. or thinking of a positive angle. I found out penty approach a date from a negative angle.. so if I give them nothing to lose. At worst they can feel good about themselves as they helped me cheer my place up. At best they notice I am clearly making excuses and just really want to see me as well. When you go out for drinks and are expected to woo each other, things feel very wooden and there is this awkward dance.. but if you have a secondary purpose.. you flirting is optional.. and the romance effort is less.. obvious so you can read intentions much more clear. Way less awkward! She would appreciate that as well.

It’s finally the day to meet them again, you have to make the perfect impression. How do you do that?

I’d probably find my pinkest dress, and put on a very nice perfume!  Like the expensive stuff.. not the cheap stuff I use when going out for minor things.  Lots and lot’s of time go in my hair and make up then as well.. I am very sucky at initiative taking or so I want to give off a signal that I dig her and I definitely look more dressed up than I need to be for buying plants. Not something overly sexy.. as that might push her away again.. but clear enough that I cleaned and brushed myself up a lot lot!..If she can read a little between the lines she’d know I probably did that for her. I’d also tell my friends and social circle.. to not bother me during that time.. so  I can give her my undivided attention.  It’s a shame but the number of times someone watches on a phone is a pretty solid  interest meter.. I want to not have to look at my phone.  I would make sure I am very much me though! I am not trying to look less weird than I am. I am not going to lie about my career.. I am jobless for the duration of this question and I would be open about it but tell her I might join Crit Role… which hopefully leaves a great impression as well.


Bean a friend of mine  really tries to cater to everyone when leaving a good impression. Wearing a decent dress, a social acceptable colour.. driving a car that makes you look decent and hang art on your walls even your mother in law finds respectable. I am not like that. If I had a car it would either look like a Duck or a Hippo, all art on my walls has some deep personal ties to me.. so it’s not just that hotel lobby art everyone has in their house.  On a first date a lot of people treat themselves like hotel lobby art as well. Talking about very standard things like “So do you have any pets?’  “What are your plans for the future”  En Masse we don’t ourselves in classic colours and socially acceptable outfits. I don’t want to make you like that false impression I want you to like me! I am prone to the little gift trope though.. like a cute plant she really liked.. or a adorable d20 dice. Like a nice personal little gift.. perhaps something geeky for in her garden.It symbolises willingness to put energy into the other for me.. and having things she associates with me in a good way does leave a good impression!  If we work out she could look at that dice and miss me.. or water the plant and think… Oh I should hang out with Pinkie again.

Turns out you miraculously got that job. You’re not entirely sure how that’s even possible but you’re not about to look a gift horse in the mouth. How do you celebrate?

I had to move to the US for said dream job so I probably do not have much friends there yet so I would call Charlie and take her out for dinner and drinks.I probably would break my twitter as well! The day I get my dream job will truly be celebrated… hungover the next morning style.  So maybe I’d actually play one of Irina’s drinking games with Charlie.  She’s into anime as well so that could be a great way to celebrate. I’d also treat myself to something I really want, like a game I desire or a figurine I always wanted. Maybe some crazy expensive steel dices. If possible something that fits in with the job I would get. So.. I most likely would play Irina’s drinking game and drunkenly order a figure I always wanted not thinking about the cost! I know I am going to need aspirin in the next morning.

Now that you have your dream fantasy job and a great relationship with the most attractive and surprising person ever, what’s your next move?

I finish my blog post and sigh! Ah would that not be wonderful?!   I walk to my bed, hug all my unicorns and Miss Luckybutt the Giant Micro Pig and put her on my lap as I write this final piece. One day we will meet our Charlie and if not I will always have this unique cute little fantasy! Now it’s time to eternalise this dream with some images and think up some questions for my nominees. Thank you Charlie you were a wonderful dream!

My Questions and Tags

Now it is time for my questions and I do like Irina’s narrative style so I  am blatantly copying it! It is a nice twist on the tag.

1. It’s a very nice day , you are returning home from doing something special, that you like to do but can’t do at your house! What is it? (Convention/A Date/ Shopping etc)

You are whistling a jaunty tune when the camera suddenly pans away from you.. unknown to you of course and we as an audience see it.. the famous anime truck! .. Or truck in anime… if you ever seen an Isekai you know exactly what I am talking about.  The Isekai truck!

2. What would happen that ends with you getting hit by said truck?!  (Save a kid, thinking to much about Yaoi, a Meteor struck and cut your leg off ..making you fall in front ot the truck etc)

You open your eyes and you are nowhere.. a warm glow appears in front of you and speaks with a familiar voice to you.. an almost indescribable.. but to you very familiar and pleasant feeling  entity appears to you.

3. Describe how this god of the new world looks like to you and how do they sound?!

Like always in a deep respectful voice they tell you, you have died but it was not your time yet so you will reborn in another world! But in trade for the inconvenience you can pick a boon! That will help you in your next life!

4. What is that boon?!

You are then send to your new world, it is a world you have always dreamed living in.

5. Describe that world!

Immediately you hear a squeaky voice.. in being teleported in you stepped on a tiny creature.. which is now sunken in the mud a bit. This will be your animal companion!

6. Tell us how it will look like and what you will call it.

You notice you have a bit of a warrior(or a fantasy class more accurately)  like outfit on.. an anime protagonist outfit.. h

7. How does the outfit look and what does it tell you about your combat abilities (Are you good with swords, axes, daggers, magic, laser weapons etc)

After seeing your new outfit you hear some towns people cry… their village is under attack.. being the newly reborn hero that you are..you of course rush over towards the town!

8. Describe the scene you see there and what is the first enemy you fight in this other world?

You saved the town and are hailed a hero! You are recruited into a group of heroes or mercinaries that allow you to travel across the world and do quests for them

9. What is the name of the organisation you join and why do you join them?

After numerous missions with this group and losing a few of these people in very emotional anime series they decide to give you a nickname… based on your fighting style and how you have grown as an anime character!

10. What is the nickname and why did they give it you. (This is a bonus question you could skip it)

Oh no! It is revealed the guild master… your boss was evil all along… or good if you decided to be evil.. anyway this DEFINITELY will  be in the Top 10 anime betrayals.They clearly  are your antagonist..even representing.. something or someone you hate in real life very much! There are strange parallels at work here!

11. Describe your Antagonist!  Give us a name a look and a motivation!


After a long and hard fought battle your anime series comes to a close and your antagonist lies defeated. Along the way you have fallen in love! But now that there is no more need for you, you need to make a decision.

12. Where will you go from here?

A) Will you go back home and find your worlds counterpart of the person you fell in love with?
B) Do you stay in the Isekai world and settle down with the person who stole your heart?
C) Do you keep wandering this world or a next one.. in search for evil or good to vanquish.. remaining ever alone .. but ever vigilant!

Since this tag is super strange.. I am not doing a lot of nominations just three! For reasons!
If you want to join! Just let me know and I will edit you into the list! Including links to your blog. So I nominate EVERYONE! A lot of people really only want to do this if they are tagged but just leave a comment and you can do this one!

Celestial Sparkles DOES get nominated because I promised to get my “revenge” for bouncing a nomination right back at me!
Anime and Fan Fiction gets a nomination because I am taking one of her..sorta tags but I am going to do my own thing with it so she can do that with this as well!
Raistlin gets nominated because he is sorta back! People should know! and rejoice!
Foovay gets a nomination as well because one of my pillows told me, she would really want to partake in these questions but would need to find a way and courage to ask for a nomination otherwise!

Of coursel like always all coconuts get auto nominated! A coconut is someone who supported me on Kofi.. so if for some reason you are to scared to comment you can also get yourself nominated by supporting my Kofi!

A Sunny Sunday: The Sunshine Blogger Award

It’s finally time! About a week ago we we nominated for the Sunshine Blogger award. With lots of social stuff I had to attend as some really sore muscles throughout the entire week it took me seven whole days to get to this.  Once more I would like to thank A Girl and her Anime for the nomination. I have handed the questions to reporter Pinkie Cherryblossom who will hold a short interview.

Thank you Pinkie! Amelia  from A Girl And Her Anime came up with these questions so mad props to her! Would you kindly visit her blog? Since I said “Would you Kindly?”  it means you all are going to have to do it! She writes some pretty insightful stuff as well as some fun reviews. She seems like an amazing person that deserves more followers. Then again she might be an alien mastermind coming to earth trying to charm way to an otaku army, you never know. Yet what are the chances that two of those happen to have the exact same idea and even follow each others blog. So nevermind that I am sure she is awesome! Moving on!

The Sunshine Blogger award has some rules which I will post near the end. I’d say most of you by now have seen these post before now anyway so I am sure you know. Let’s get down to these questions Pinkie if you please take a seat I will ask us the questions Amelia came up with. Even though she tagged 11 bloggers the first question she came up with seems to be made JUST for us! So thank you for that one!
Question number one is…..!

If you were a Pokémon, what sort of Pokémon would you be?

I wish I could say I was a Sylveon..It’s all about love and that is really big for me, and with a lot of pink and cute ribbons it is totally my style. It’s a bit of my spirit animal. However my friends always call me Pancham, because it’s a Panda. It has become a meme on how pure my mind is, I never understand sex jokes, I never get inuendo and I am honestly not all that interested in the physical stuff to a point of not at all. To my friends amusement I always seem to miss any lewd moments as well. If we are watching an anime, the moment I get up there will be a risque scene, when I get back the scene is over.  When two friends are making out.. I get distracted by a butterfly passing outside and completely miss it. One night a friend was joking and asking ‘What if Pinkie does see something lewd? Will the universe explode?’ He wanted to put something on his tv but at that exact moment the batteries of his remote control were drained. That’s when I became the ultimate Panda. So my Pokémon would have to reflect that as well. I really do feel like I would be a fairy-type though so lets say I am a regional form Pancham that is a Fairy-Psychic type (A nice counter part to the dark-fightingy type, pangoro grows into)  also to reflect I really like Kawaii stuff but also to play mind games with people.I would have pixilate as an ability.. because I’d love to make normal stuff cute and I could still show my love throughout the move Return that way!
That is a move that deals more damage if the Pokémon loves it’s trainer a lot. If I like you well enough I will fight super hard for you, so it seems like a great fit.

Do  you play video games? If so what have you been playing recently?

Well will not cheese this one and say I have been playing Pokémon Let’s Go, Pokémon Snap and Pokémon Ultra Sun… I do but those are all like stuff I normally talk in this blog about. What I have been playing most recently is Ducktales Remastered. Ducks are some of my favorite animals. When I was just a little girl, I asked my mother what will I be? She sighed and just put on Disney. Ducktales was one of the first TV shows I ever loved. To this day I have fuzzy memories and I ADORE the 2017 remake. Because I was a total dojikko (a clumsy girl)   when I was young, because it would turn out there was something wrong with, I never really liked playing outside. It would always end up with me falling from or into something. If that didn’t happen I would get stuck somewhere. It was stressful. So my parents decided to buy me a NES (Nintendo Entertainment System) with Super Mario Bros 3 and Ducktales as starting games. Mario 3 was nice, but I was in love with Ducktales. It was Shovel Knight, 25 years before Shovel Knight and it was the game that turned me into a gamer. Like a lot of games it has gotten a remake that I played with a friend once (at their place) but now it is being pulled of the market and going away for ever. So shout out to Kurtis for gifting me this one!

What is your favorite colour: Any particular reason why it’s your favorite?

Pinkie’s favorite colour is pink! I bet you didn’t see that one coming if you have ever been to my blog. Pink has a deeper meaning to me though then just being cute. I never grew up very girly, due to my faulty build the other girls and I grew apart, as my lack of grace resulted in me not really liking the stuff they liked and feeling happier with a controller in my hand. I could exert an amount of control over my actions in games I lacked in real life.  So I became a bit of a tomboy/loner/geek with teenage mutant ninja turtle shirts and the likes in an attempt to at least belong somewhere.. like being that girl that is one of the guys but who was never accepted as one either and a lot of bullying ensued .. mostly because I moved so weirdly . Itt took me many years to find that out and just around the time I was finally becoming me around when I was 22. I started to experiment with pink clothes. Around that same time I got very sick, my muscle issues seemed to tax my heart now as well. We didn’t exactly know what was wrong so I had to visit a lot of hospitals At the time I had a pink pyjama and pink bathrobes . In the hospital it’s not that hard for you to feel like just a number or patient X. I wasn’t at one ward each time I was at different places so it even felt more like that. It very much looked like there wasn’t going to be a future for me at all at that time which resulted in a bit of an existential crisis that I would die and no one would remember, that I would be a person that is truly gone straight away. Yet I got a bit better, a medicine was found that helped me greatly.  Doctors a lot more positive began to refer to me by my super pink look, calling me Pinkie. I developed a persona alongside it as a coping mechanism which turned out to be much closer to my actual core self.. but not as afraid and held back by the bullying i received in the past. It represented my repressed self, my true self and ever since that time I connect pink to the strength to be me the freedom to be me.

What is your favorite thing to do during summer?

Sorry about the long answers before this one! Amelia sure picked her questions neatly! There was a lot of stuff to tell.  My favorite thing to do during summer is stroll around on a boulevard on the late evening, the sun warming my muscles, the feeling of a vaction you can have while strolling through a place where everything seems to move just a tiny bit slower than it normally would, seeing that bit of heat distortion way ahead towards your destination. Just by the look of the sky being able to tell that tomorrow is going to be another great day The freedom and the level of comfort are great. Shall I go out with some friends for a drink? Shall I buy that cute purse in the window tomorrow. I love all those things , but that toasty summer stroll where everything is still possible is my favorite moment.

Ghibli is obviously very popular , but what movie do you think is the most overrated?

Honestly? I think all of them are at least a bit overrated. I do like them quite a lot but I do find some of them a bit overly artsy as well. They might impress me more than your average film, they might have the stronger messages behind them but I for one prefer to be entertained .
The Wind rises i saw in a premiere for example. With messages what we should not let technology pass us by and creative choices like having all engines be made by voice effects to make them sound more warm and personal is great. I sit there and nod my head going! Good Show that is impressive. When I watch the second Gurren Laggan movie I am not thinking , wow that’s impressive or  that is such a clever allegory. No when I watch that movie I am shouting at my screen. “WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK WE ARE” , extending my hand to help Giga drill break and in their first movie, when Simon and Kamina Gatai for the first time I am like kicking the floor in a giddy excitement. Ghibli can make me laugh, and it can make me cry but it can never take me on a real roller coaster of emotions. They feel like the Louvre museum of anime. Mad respect to the Louvre.. but when I am in Paris I much rather go to Disneyland

If you could travel back in time, when you travel and why?

Tokyo 1991. The Gameboy has just come out and Satoshi Tajiri will soon talk to Miyamoto about developing the link cable, during which they would talk about transferring insects. A concept that would  lead to development of Pokémon. I plan to go there and steal their pitch! So I can own the Pokémon IP, of course I would still entrust Game Freak with the idea after, but think of all the money I would have and I would be the princess or queen even of Pokémon. Sure I could help the world by altering a historic event but that’s boring!  I am going to be honest, I’d rather be rich than a hero, I deserve some good times as well.

As a the new leader of a country, what is the first law you introduce?

This is a hard one, I could spout some idealistic nonsense that is never going to happen anyway like ‘everyone’ is forced to love each other but this is not enforceable and it would  kill individuality if it works. No I would instead create the ‘my opinion’ law . It’s a harsh one as it would forbid any form of social influencing media from phrasing their opinions as facts.
‘People who can’t play Tracer should be shot … would be an illegal titel for your post. ‘I think people who can’t play Tracer should be shot’  would be fine. A lot of negativity in this world comes from big youtubers saying something is bad, convincing people their is only one correct opinion, if creates conflict and division. When we forbid people to claim their opinions as factual and make them say that this is only their opinion, it is much harsher to cause harm to anyone.  Don’t believe in a non-binary gender system? Saying “there is only males and females is hurtful’ hearing ‘In my opinion gender IS binary’ might be disappointing but is never hurtful. Both offender and offensee can realise there are two sides to this coin. We can learn to respect each others opinions because they are forced to be spoken out as such. A single opinion never has the power to change you, you can however choose to heed the opinion. So gone with the Count Dankula’s in this world and goodbye to “you are stupid and should die”  In my nation you’ll read “I think you are stupid and should die instead’ It already stings less, and over time maybe we can fix this weird ass Political Correct purgatory we are creating for ourselves.  and actually start being ourselves rather than our newly invented emblem or classical stereotype. If we know our enemies are just giving their opinon, we can hug them better.

Have you been reading anything lately?

I’ve been reading the Pokémon Adventures Manga as well as a bit of Is This A Zombie?It’s been a while since I read an actual good book. I’ve been trying to read Dan Brown’s origin but I don’t have a lot of positive things to say about that one. I’ve also been reading the D&D 5th GM manual and player handbook a lot! Those are technically books.  Finally I have been reading all of your blogs, they are all amazing, yours is even a little better than that of my others readers but that is a secret between us two okay?

Tell us about your favourite film

I actually have two. My regular answer to what my favorite movie is would be.  Catch me if you can.   I love the story of the young con-artist pretending to be a pilot, lawyer and doctor. Dicaprio portrays Frank Abagnale perfectly.  Tom Hanks playing the FBI agent who is after him is done exceptionally well, I root for both sides I watch the movie. It’s such a compelling story with a great soundtrack, stellar acting and basically anything a girl can wish for in a good movie. It’s definitely my favorite good movie and if you haven’t seen it yet you should definitely check it out.

My REAL favourite movie however would have to be Tommy Wisseau’s the room. The BEST worst movie ever. It is such a cringeworthy watch each time, yet it has become so much more than just a film to me.  I crossplayed Wiseau, I met people because of the movie, I went to special theaters, I carry plastic spoons when I see it. Whenever I see a small dog I go “hi doggie” even if I actually speak dutch. It gave us jokes inside our group of friends. We are even considering organising “tommy con’ It will not be an actual convention, it will just be fans of the movie gathering in a park.. dressed in a suit, tossing american footballs around. For those who don’t know what the Room is? The Room tells the story about Johny, and all American man (with a bit of an accent) who gets cheated on by his wife when his promotion falls trough. There are some other plothooks like a mother in law with cancer, which is never addressed, a  young boys issues with drugs, which isn’t really addressed or rounded out, characters appearing and vanishing from thin air… and random people who don’t live there having sex on the couch. There is a lot of spoons hidden in the movie as well as well as tossing the football. it is atrociously bad and almost unwatchable and I love every minute of my own.. and the friends I watch it with suffering.  James Franco made a movie about how bad this movie is called the disaster artist and that one was just as great.  All the stories surrounding The Room, make it something greater.

Put your music on shuffle. What are the first three songs to play?

My father was a musician and he always tried to force his music onto me, I never rebelled much as a teen, but I kinda rebelled to music in general,. Now I mostly listen weeaboo music or geek music. I never play any pop music or anything.  So I will just share the last tracks I listened trough videos.   

And one bonus song! Because it started playing right after and I felt bad in leaving this one off!

If you were to suggest an anime I had to watch, what would you recommend?

Way too known to be a proper suggestion would be Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, it’s my favorite anime ever by a landslide. A giga drill breaker caused landslide, that one is just so friggin amazing I have to actively try not to soil myself in excitement. However because it’s that amazing I think everyone in the world already knows about it and follow the Gospel of Kamina and Simon so the thing I am gonna recommend is…..
Selector Infected Wixoss.

A slightly more obscure 2014 anime about cute girls battling with cards to get their wish granted.  If you win 3 card battles you get your wish granted, if you lose 3 you’ll lose your wish forever as well as the little buddy that dwells inside your main card.Yet no one knows the true and dark secrets about this card battle game. The anime starts out incredibly slow but once the story starts rolling you have an extremely dark story that brings Madoka and Yu-gi-oh together  in a grim tale. Do not expect a happily ever after when you start this one because this goes in the shadows, this isn’t cute girls playing a children’s card game… this is some serious doodoo. The characters are nice and though nothing to special they work and you pelted with a million of them . If you like Madoka, and if you like to a slower moving story filled with intrigue and mystery, with the pay off mostly in the later half of the series, then this is a series  you should watch.
